One Ceylon and one Darjeeling from Mariage Freres

Mariage Freres Darjeeling Princeton, Grand Darjeeling TGFOP;
Pale amber colour, very pleasant mouthfeel, and a very elegant Darjeeling. Rich in flavours, but still tender and transparent. Some green notes, perfumed and floral, hints of citrus fruits and some orange peel in the back, then mellow notes, almost like a white tea in it's tenderness. Is there some bergamot as well? if it is, it's very subtle. Fantastic long aftertaste, amazing Darjeeling. 93


Mariage Freres Saint James O.P., Ceylon Finest Harvest;
Redish amber colour, green rim, mellow and tender, very delicate and elagant for a Ceylon. Not the most complex and big, but that is excactly why it is this good, Bergamot, some sitrus and orange tones, hints of flowers, tiny hints of mahogany, complex but subtle nose. Very elegant Ceylon 89
